   While installing the flash plugin, I had an error arise - I'm not sure if it counts as a bug or not, though.

   When running the get-flash-plugin script, it failed and told me the target URL was wrong. Sure enough, when I went through the adobe site and manually selected the 'Other Linux 32-bit' installer, the URL was different:

   http://get.adobe.com/fr/flashplayer/completion/?installer=Flash_Player_${i:0:2}.${i:2:1}_for_other_Linux_(.tar.gz)_32-bit (Original #1)
   http://get.adobe.com/fr/flashplayer/completion/?installer=Flash_Player_${i}_for_other_Linux_(.tar.gz)_32-bit (Original #2)
   http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/completion/?installer=Flash_Player_11.2_for_other_Linux_(.tar.gz)_32-bit (Adobe version)

   When I changed the script to include this, it worked without a problem.

   Should this be filed as a bug, or will this post suffice as a fix/guide?

   Or you could just use http://www.trixarian.net/downloads/flash-plugin.tazpkg

   It's the actual plugin file and not a downloader script

   Trying it again now with the un-modified script (I originally installed it a few hours ago), it works normally. I'll put it down to gremlins, I think!
